1 A really good hint for others trying the shakes, make them with the V8 fusion juices or even the Wal Mart version and add 1 cup of frozen fruit to the protein powder. This way you have a cold smoothie and do not need to add the water or ice. This also makes it about 2 cups when blended so you feel like it s a treat. Even my kids ask for a cup of smoothie to start their day! I find it a refreshing way to start the day and very affordableand filling. - Rebecca Miller I mix 1/2 cup of yogurt, 1/2 cup of veggie juice and 2 bananas with my Lean shakes and I love it! -Lodge Raamco Take any fresh fruit in season-peel it, seed it, and cut it into small pieces. Freeze and then take 1/2 cup of the frozen fruit, 1/2 cup water and 1/2 crushed Ice and add 1 spoon of Lean. Blend well and enjoy a healthy smoothie! You can also use fresh fruit from your grocery store-i use mangoes, peaches, bananas and berries. Enjoy! -Gamaliel Colón I love coffee so an afternoon cappuccino is the way to get through the day with a extraordinary beverage that is healthy and not a Starbucks drive through... Use 1 cup of coffee your brand, 1 scoop protein powder, 1 tablespoon of local vanilla cappuccino powder (has a lot of sugar, so get the light version) and a cup of ice... Great treat on a hot day and will fill you up. -Rebecca Miller My summer cocktail "Lean on the Beach" Take 1 scoop of Lean, pineapple juice, coconut rum, and ice - add to your blender bottle and shake it up! Straw and paper umbrella are optional! -Cynthia Evans One serving of low-fat Greek style yogurt (I happen to like Trader Joe's), sprinkle with 1/2 XypStix (pronounced Zip Sticks ) packet (a blend of high anti-oxidant super fruits, aloe Vera -a natural healing agent, and xanthones known for anti-inflammatory qualities). Add 5-10 chopped raw almonds to give a nice crunch to your lunch. -Cinda Weisgerber 1
